Leverett’s Chapel ISD will begin accepting student transfer applications for the Spring Semester on November 4.
Leverett’s Chapel means a great deal to me both personally and professionally. It is more than a school district. It is a family. It is a place where teachers know every child, where students are encouraged to dream big, and where we take pride in doing things the right way. Every day, we are working to make Leverett’s Chapel a better place for our students and our community.
If you are looking for a small district that offers personal attention, strong academics, and a caring environment, we would love the opportunity to visit with you. I would be honored to talk with you about your child’s future and how your family can become a part of the Leverett’s Chapel Lion Family in 2026.
Small School. Big Dreams. Bold Futures.

Leverett’s Chapel ISD had the opportunity to visit Stephen F. Austin State University for the Teacher Career Fair. Dr. Peddy and Jennifer Williams represented our district and were out spreading the good word about Leverett’s Chapel and our commitment to recruiting some of the best young teachers in the state.
We are always looking for talented and passionate educators who want to make a difference for the students of Leverett’s Chapel. Our small school offers big opportunities, strong community support, and a place where teachers can truly see the impact of their work every day.

It has been a few weeks since our last attendance update, but LC Elementary continues to show up strong.
Today, the campus hit 98 percent attendance with only two students absent. That is a great way to keep the momentum going, even with the change in seasons.
Thank you to our students, families, and staff for staying consistent. You are laying the foundation early.

Schools purchase buses every day. Most treat it like routine business. Just another transaction.
That is not how I see it.
Here at Leverett’s Chapel ISD, this is a moment worth celebrating. This is about safety for our students. This is about pride in our district. This is about continuing to move forward together.
I am proud to share that we have added a brand new school bus to our fleet. This is not just a vehicle. It is an investment in our students. It means safer, more reliable transportation. It means a comfortable ride for the young people we serve. It means doing right by our kids.
Thank you to our school board for supporting this purchase. Thank you to everyone involved in the process!!
Mr. Stan, enjoy your new route bus. I know you will take care of it like you take care of our students.
We are blessed here at LCISD. This is another step in the right direction.

As we close out the third week of the second six weeks and prepare for Fall Break, I want to share a brief reflection and an important reminder. This week, I visited Weatherford ISD and Burleson ISD and saw the many resources and opportunities they offer their students. For a moment, I thought about how nice it would be to have everything they have.
That feeling did not last long. It quickly became clear how special our students, staff, and community truly are. Our children work hard. They often must push twice as hard to reach the same opportunities, and yet they continue to succeed. Much of that success comes from the adults who surround them every day. Our teachers, support staff, coaches, and you, their families, make the difference.
Thank you for entrusting us with your most precious possessions, your children!
The district will be on Fall Break from October 13 through October 20, 2025. School will resume normal hours on Tuesday, October 21, 2025.

Today, Mrs. Monaghan's kindergarten class had a hands-on lesson about pollination. Students acted out the process by pretending to be bees and flowers. They moved "pollen" and "nectar" from flower to flower, just like real pollinators do.
It was a little messy, but it was full of learning and fun. The students had the opportunity to experience science in action. We celebrate not only what they learned, but how they learned it. Creativity, movement, and play are all part of the learning process.
